Nice job, Dave. Now that's what we call "Breakin' it down all Barney style"! I may modify this just slightly for the addition of 12V to the rear cargo area.
I may do that as well....there is another thread here that says the white wire is a constant hot for the subwoofer location, so that makes it easy. Again, the hard part is drilling the hole.

Great write up Dave. I hope tomorrow I can head down to your place and help install those Hellas on your bumper.
I'm SERIOUSLY looking forward to this!!

Kudos, this is how write ups should be. Excellent job for even the beginner. I've gotta add one now.

Re: Very Detailed Install, 12V power outlet

Excellent job Dave! LCSteve already mentioned the wire size.

My only other comment is that I solder all wire connections. I've found that the bouncing we encounter on trails tends to loosen crimped wire connections.

cheers,

dale

Re: Very Detailed Install, 12V power outlet

Hahaha....thanks....I had myself in mind when I made the thread

I kept seeing some of the questions in the other 12V outlet install thread that were answered in this one....just thought I'd bump it to help them out too....
